Miami Dolphins receiver DeVante Parker injured his ankle in the 16-10 victory over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. While Parker did return to the sideline, he never re-entered the game.

Wednesday, Parker did not practice with the rest of his Dolphin teammates. During his press conference earlier in the day, Dolphins head coach Adam Gase said he did not know the status of Parker for this Week 6’s game against the Atlanta Falcons.

“I don’t have an update that’s going to help anybody,” Gase said. “I’m kind of in a wait-and-see mode. Last year, we went to the Baltimore game and I was told he’s not going to play for a couple of weeks and he played on that Sunday. I just never count him out and we’ll just kind of see how the week progresses. If he’s out there, it’s always, it’s a big positive for us – size, speed, his ability to go up and get balls – and if he’s not out there, we’ve got guys we’ve got to shuffle around.”

Parker leads the team in receiving yards (236) and is second in receptions (28). If Parker doesn’t play against the Falcons, that would be a huge blow to an offense that is arguably the worst in the NFL.

On the flip side, cornerback Byron Maxwell and defensive tackle Jordan Phillips practiced during the open portion available to the media.
